Use relative path in links and references #33

Open stefanhenze opened 11 years ago

stefanhenze commented 11 years ago

It would be great if there was an option to use a relative path (not starting with /) instead of absolute paths for links to other pages or references to JS or CSS. Right now, I'm absolute (/) paths to my CSS and JS files, but that only works if the site is installed under a well known root. Or am I missing something?

Nope, you're not missing anything. That's how I first used bonsai, but I've definitely been asked this at least once before.

It doesn't sound unreasonable to me. As for implementation\happy to accept it as a direct change, no build flags or anything required. Simply remove the slash. That seems more flexible across the board.
